A Humble Request from the Members of the IESL for a Worthy Cause

Ms. Dhammika Pathirana, a member of the IESL staff, who is known to everybody as Dhammika of the Education Division, has been working in the IESL Headquarters since 2009, is currently facing a difficulty in meeting financial requirements to get a kidney transplanted for her husband.

The estimated cost, which is around Rs. 5 million, includes the anticipated hospital bills on surgery for the patient and donor, pre-surgery tests to be made to the donor and the patient prior to the replacement, cost of post-surgery medicine, etc.

It is expected that the members of the IESL would contribute to this worthy cause, so that Dhammika will be able to give the normal life to her husband, not forgetting the fact that Dhammika has been toiling for the IESL for more than a decade. The amount you can contribute depends on how much you can afford.

Her Account details are given below:

IESL Assistance to Members Affected by the

Crisis situation prevailing in the Country

We are well aware that the Country is passing through one of the toughest time ever faced, and is stuck in a multiple crisis situation.

This crisis situation in the country is becoming worse day by day and it is expected to reach it’s peak within the next three to six months and most likely to continue for a further period of one to two years. As per a recent government decision, directives have been given to suspend all ongoing construction projects, funded by the Government of Sri Lanka, due to the non-availability of funds. As a direct impact of this suspension of projects, there is a threat of losing employment of a large number of engineers attached to these projects including those who are involved in other support services connected with these projects. This has been already brought to the notice of IESL by several of its members who have lost their employment and they request IESL assistance in this hour of need.

IESL, having paid attention to this situation, the Professional Affairs Committee appointed a special Sub Committee under the Chairmanship of Eng. K.P.I.U.Dharmapala (Immediate Past President) to study and propose possible ways and means to assist the engineers who have been and are going to affect by the Country’s current crisis. The Sub Committee has had several meetings already and also had discussions with our Chapters abroad, and come out with their recommendations and the report can be accessed through the following link.

Link: https://app.box.com/s/thtuv894p3lfryg1rhlf410vbohgzd4x

IESL has already started to implement some of the short-term recommendations therein made. By implementing the subcommittee recommendations, it is expected to provide some assistance to the members who have been affected by the prevailing economic crisis situation.

IESL also wishes to appreciate and thank the Foreign Chapters for their prompt response and excellent corporation extended in this issue.

Through this exercise, it may not be possible to attend to the issues of members on an individual basis, however, it is intended to assist the affected members in a common approach in some of the urgent issues faced by its membership due to the crisis situation.

The Sub Committee has also proposed a few recommendations as long-term proposals to address the employment problem caused due to the crisis situation, in the long run.

We herewith request our members, who have been affected due to suspension of projects or other actions caused by the current crisis, to write to us with their grievances using the following email address.

info@iesl.lk

The Sub Committee is also willing to receive any suggestions from members that can help to uphold the proposals further.

Average number of candidates applying for the B Paper for a session is around 400 to 450.

The questions should be generic, so that any engineer should be able to answer any of the questions, as the questions are set to test the candidates’ ability to perform in the society, rather than his/her technical knowledge.

The lecture series is conducted to enhance the knowledge of Associate Members (AMIESL) who are preparing for the B paper. Key areas to be covered;

IESL Code of Ethics
Engineer as a Social Leader
Engineer as a Manager
Engineer as a Technical Leader

The details of the examination paper and lecture series are given in the annexure A and summery annexure B

BLOOMING BUDS - 4” ANNUAL CHARITY PROGRAM

Notice

Published Date : 2022-02-16

“BLOOMING BUDS - 4”
ANNUAL CHARITY PROGRAM
Organized by IESL WOMEN ENGINEERS’ FORUM FOR THE FOURTH TIME

As requested by the Chairperson of the Women Engineers' Forum, Eng. (Ms) Devika Abeysuriya, we would like to share the following message among our members for their information and action.

Education is the best gift we can offer to a child. Future of the nation solely depends on the quality of education received by our children. Hence, it is our bound duty to make the environment conducive for the education of each and every child in our country. By identifying this national duty, Women Engineers’ Forum (WEF) of the Institution of Engineers Sri Lanka (IESL) initiated the Blooming Buds program to provide helping hands to the needy school children in our country and to provide essential facilities to rural schools in Sri Lanka four years back.

Blooming Buds 1: This program was initiated in year 2018, and WEF was able to support over 170 school children in three schools, namely, Kanichchigala Primary School, Selasumgama Primary School and Kajuwatta Vidyalaya in Polonnaruwa District, by donating stationery, shoes, uniforms, bags, water bottles, lunch boxes etc..

Blooming Buds 2: In year 2019, WEF was able to support over 110 school children in Nalanda Primary School in Thanamalwila, Monaragala District, by donating stationery, shoes, uniforms, bags, water bottles, lunch boxes etc.

Blooming Buds 3: In year 2020, WEF could provide sanitary facilities for three schools, namely Giridara Sribodhi Vidyalaya in Dompe, Kuli/ L.B. Jayasena M.V, Horagasagaara Kuliyapitiya and Ch/SippikalanaVidyalaya, Mugunawatawana in New Chillaw.
All the above was possible due to the generous contributions made by the members of IESL, in response to our appeal for donations, and due to the group of Women Engineers who worked tirelessly to implement the projects. WEF wishes to express our sincere gratitude to all the IESL members for their invaluable generous contributions to make the previous Blooming Buds programs very successful and expect your continuous support this time as well.

Blooming Buds 4: We are happy to announce that WEF is organizing the Blooming Buds program for the fourth consecutive time. This year, it is planned to facilitate library facilities, and current requirements of two very rural schools, namely Ba/ Wellewelatenna Vidyalaya, Baduluoya, Kandekatiya in Badulla District and Ku/Hanthihawa K.V Halmillawewa in Kurunegala DistrictWe have contacted the Principals of the schools for the requirements. We kindly request your valuable donations for this great cause.

For Ba/ Wellewelatenna Vidyalaya, an available classroom building is proposed to be renovated as the library, and the required books and equipment need to be donated. Current condition of the available classroom building is given in the following photographs.

Existing library facilities of the Kuli/Hanthihawa K.V. is as shown in the photographs below. It is proposed to renovate the existing library building, and the required books and equipment are to be donated.

Cost Estimate for the above is as follows.

The sum of LKR 692,816.12 was received from the IESL membership for Blooming Buds 3 program and LKR 97,905.75 remained as balance after the Blooming Buds 2 program. At the end of Blooming Buds 3 program, balance of LKR 298,569.87 is available and is planned to be carried forward for the Blooming Buds 4 program. Hence balance requirement to cover the estimated cost will be 1,905,430.13 LKR .

“Helping others in their times of need is the best gift to humanity”. Hence WEF believe that this is the right time for us to get together and lend our hands for a worthy cause. Children are the future of this country and by investing for children’s basic needs in schools; we are contributing to the country’s development and a self-sufficient literate society.

To make this endeavour a reality, WEF would like to invite you to join hands with us both monetarily and morally.

Engineers' Day (17th September) - Message from the President...

Notice

Published Date : 2021-09-17

Presidents Message - Engineers' Day 2021

Engineering is one of the oldest professions in the world. Even though the word ‘Engineering’ was not necessarily used, every civilization that existed on planet earth was advanced with the help of engineering knowledge and wisdom. Sri Lanka is not second to any of the western or eastern civilizations that existed, has an outstanding civilization with engineering wonders.

Ancient cities of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa bear witness to the advanced engineering principles put into practice to solve complicated problems in irrigation, construction and so on. Even though we can only witness the remains of some of the greatest structures ever built in Sri Lanka, they have been acknowledged as engineering wonders around the world. Jethawanaramaya, the world's largest stupa from the ancient world, irrigation systems at Sigiriya, Yoda Ala are some of the universally well-known examples for such wonders. The engineering knowledge Sri Lankans had was remarkable and all of it was acquired by solving practical engineering problems.

As industrialization came in to picture the engineering and engineering practices too became influenced by western schools of thought. During the British colonization, western engineering principles and practices were introduced and taught to the natives. Technical colleges and universities established during this time promoted the western way of engineering and that has become our practice ever since.

After practicing engineering for more than a century, there emerged a need to regulate the engineering practice in the country. Fulfilling this requirement the Engineering Council of Sri Lanka was established on 24th August 2018, in accordance with the provisions of the Engineering Council, Sri Lanka Act No 4 of 2017. On the 17^th of September 2019, the office of the ECSL was formally opened for services with the attendance of his excellency the president and 17^th September of each year was named as the Engineers’ Day in Sri Lanka from there onwards.

The establishment of ECSL is a milestone in the history of engineering in Sri Lanka. So as the naming of engineering day. The purpose of dedicating a day for engineering is to celebrate and appreciate the tremendous work done by engineers for the betterment of the county and society. Engineers engage in solving problems where engineering solutions can be applied. Today they are involved in not only the construction, transportation and irrigation but also in bio-medicine, nanotechnology, AI technology and many more advanced technologies which serve humankind in different capacities.

Also, during the COVID -19 situation in the country, engineers worked hand in hand with medical officers to fight off this pandemic and bring safety and stability to the country. The work they have done is enormous and must be applauded.

While celebrating Engineers’ Day for the year 2021, I would like to thanks all the engineers for the sacrifices made to make the world a better place.

Every year along with the membership subscription payment, most of our Members contribute to the fund voluntarily. Thanks to them, there is a reasonable accumulation of funds to assist our members who are in distress. This fund is managed by the Benevolent Fund Management Committee, headed by the Chairman of the Board of Trustees (BOT), in a very transparent manner.

What is the benefit of Benevolent Fund to members?

Members can obtain the financial support for following requirements, if they are in distress.

Critical illness related claims - Maximum Rs. 350,000/- per Member, Rs. 175,000/- for the spouse
Covid related claims (newly introduced in year 2021)
Rs 50,000/- (without bills)

As the 3^rd wave of Covid-19 pandemic spreads all over the country in a greater pace, IESL has stepped forward to lend its helping hand to strengthen the capability of the health care sector of the country to face this calamity.

Meanwhile, IESL received a request from the Director of District General Hospital, Hambantota to design and install an Oxygen Distribution System which is desperately required by the hospital to treat the critical Covid-19 patients.

Two Sectional Committees of IESL, namely Mechanical Engineering Sectional Committee (MESC) and Building Services Engineering Sectional Committee (BSESC) joined hands together to make this national requirement a reality. A joint steering committee was formed to finalize the engineering design and to execute the same. IESL engineers are ready to give their expertise to design the system and to monitor the project until its completion, free of charge, considering the national importance of the said requirement.

The estimated cost of the total project of supplying and installing the oxygen distribution system for DGH - Hambantota is Rs. 1,750,000/- and IESL is prepared to shoulder a part of the project cost, amounting to Rs. 800,000/-.

In this noble cause, it will be highly appreciated and honored for your contribution to cover up the deficit, amounting to Rs. 950,000/-. All the transactions pertaining to this project will be taken place in transparent manner as per the financial procedures of the IESL.

Call for members to join the team - Human- Elephant Conflict...

Notice

Published Date : 2021-05-14

A council paper submitted by Vice President, Eng Granie Jayalath on 7^th May 2021 , drawing the attention of IESL to get intervened and to have an amicable solution towards the 70 years old Human- Elephant Conflict ( HEC) our country facing, was approved to proceed on.

Preamble

Since 1940, Human-elephant conflict (HEC) has become a serious socio-cultural and socio-economic problem in Sri Lanka. Globally, Sri Lanka had the highest annual elephant deaths and second highest human deaths, due to HEC. Though in average 250 elephants die annually, in year 2018 it exceeded 300 and in year 2019 it surpassed 400 deaths. Similarly, 96 humans died in year 2018 and it was 120 in year 2019. Today elephants live within 62% of the land area of the country. Within 44% of the land area elephants and people live together with conflicts.

Measures we had been adopting so far had not been successful to mitigate the HEC. Meanwhile in year 2006, a policy had been formulated depicting how HEC could be resolved following the “co-existence philosophy”, but it has not yet been implemented.

Call for members to join the team

In order to arrive at a viable ideology, certainly, we need a multi-disciplinary approach with contributions of all concerned stakeholders, including the contributions of citizens, villagers and farmers. IESL intends to develop a policy directive to this Socio- cultural and Socio-economically sensitive issue with the intention of submitting to his Excellency the President and other respective stakeholder institutions. Those who are interested and willing to contribute, are kindly requested to inform the Manager Publicity, IESL via email mgr.pub@iesl.lk on or before 18^th May 2021. The TOR and the action plan are to be circulated among the members of the committee on 20^th May 2021.

Opportunity to Chemical Engineers for a Pre-feasibility study assignment

Paranthan Chemicals Company Ltd (PCCL), a State-owned company functioning under the purview of the Ministry of Industries has initiated a feasibility study to set up a caustic soda/chlorine plant at Paranthan in Kilinochchi District. There were four products identified to be manufactured in this project, namely caustic soda, chlorine, hydrochloric acid and sodium hypochlorite. However in the market study of this feasibility study has shown that there is a huge market potential for poly aluminium chloride (PAC). As such PCCL has decided to incorporate PAC into the project. Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) is an effective & useful substitute for Aluminium Sulfate (Alum) which is conventionally used for removal of mud/turbidity in most of water treatment plants in Sri Lanka.

Poly aluminium chloride demand in Sri Lanka is 8,500 metric tons annually with an increasing demand trend. This volume equates approximately a market value of Rs. 600 million annually. As such PCCL has initiated a literature survey/study on commercially available production technologies so that best technology can be identified to set up a PAC plant. PCCL intends to get the assistance of a team of Chemical Engineers for this study. A Terms of Reference is prepared for this study. A honorarium will be paid to the Engineers participating in this study as an appreciation of their contribution towards this assignment.

Interested Chemical Engineers shall contact the Secretary of the Chemical Engineering Sectional Committee for further details & to obtain the TOR.

The deadline is 22nd February 2021.

“Drive Smart, Save lives” Program by CESC of the IESL

In a moment when center of attention is taken by Covid 19 global pandemic, as professionals in the field, Civil Engineering sectional committee (CESC) of the Institute of Engineers Sri Lanka (IESL) has planned to launch an awareness program “Drive Smart, Save lives” regarding road accidents to the general public and also to the Engineers.

As per the statistics, in 2019, a total of 30,433 motor accidents were reported, claiming the lives of 2839 people. In fact, road accidents are within the top 10 most contributing cause of total deaths in Sri Lanka. There are many contributing factors to the occurrence of such incidents. Recklessness of drivers, lack of knowledge, fatigue or stress, human errors, road conditions, poor health and lack of driving experience are few contributing factors among many possible root causes. With accident related data it is conclusive that vehicle accidents are resulted in affecting human lives and economy in significant manner. As a conclusion, it is imperative to take necessary actions to avoid such incidents as much as possible. CESC has intended to conduct the program in different stages by following various strategies to enhance the knowledge, discipline of the general public. In addition, more importantly, CESC is engaged in increasing engineers’ contribution to reduce accidents by identifying root causes and providing engineering solutions.

In order to commence the “Drive Smart, Save lives” program, CESC has decided to distribute an informative flyer and windscreen sticker among general public as the first step of the said program at the Kottawa Expressway interchange. In addition, a brief discussion will be held on with the presence of experts in the field at the event location. Furthermore, as the 2^nd event of the program, a panel discussion will be conducted at the beginning of the next month. Both events will be recorded and broadcasted later via EVENT TV. In addition, panel discussion will be broadcasted as a live event via IESL YOU TUBE channel.

Details related to the events are indicated below.

Date – 14^th February 2021

Time - 8.30 am to 11.30am

Venue – Kottawa Expressway interchange.

INVITATION TO JOIN THE IESL ETHICS COMMITTEE

Dear Member

INVITATION TO JOIN THE IESL ETHICS COMMITTEE

Following is an invitation from the Chairman of the Council appointed Committee Chairman, Eng. Granie Jayalath – Vice President IESL to join the IESL Ethics Committee. The first meeting has been scheduled for 5.00 pm on 15^th January 2021 at the Members’ Lounge of IESL head office.

Background

Thought out the last several decades, we had gradually lost image within the society. As you are aware there are many examples/ cases warranting this situation. Among many others one important factor that had contributed towards this situation had been the violation of our own code of ethics by our own members. Meanwhile it was evidenced that the share of violations the “Code of Ethics” had shouldered a significant portion towards the prevailing situation. Members had been used to point out that the current “Code of Ethics” warrant revisit & re-drafting so that violations could simply be analyzed making reference to the code of ethics, which is not the case with prevailing code. Because of this situation the committee called “Ethic Committee” was rejuvenated at the last council meeting.

Objectives of Ethics Committee

Conducting general awareness sessions for membership.
Analysing of inquiries related to violation of code ethics & submit observations and recommendations to the council.
Revisit the existing code of ethics & develop a simplified version of it so that members could understand and follow them easily.
Whether Ethic committee could serve as a “Saviour“ for those who are compelled to commit violations against their own consciences.

Those who wish to join the first meeting of the “Ethics Committee” are requested to express their willingness by dropping an Email to CEO/ES (email: es@iesl.lk) on or before 13^th January 2021.

Blooming Buds by WEF

Notice

Published Date : 2020-11-28

As engineers we were benefitted by the free education system patronized by the citizens of this country. Hence it is our responsibility to give helping hand to blooming buds in our nation to brighten up their lives too. As leading professionals, IESL Women Engineers’ Forum (WEF) has realized that it is the responsibility and duty of us to support the students of rural schools who are going through a hard time to get their education with unbelievably limited resources. . WEF came up with an annual charity program called “Blooming Buds” in year 2018. We were able to support over 170 school children in year 2018 and over 110 school children in year 2019 in rural areas in the country with the kind donations of our IESL members and other well-wishers by donating them with stationaries, bags, shoes and other facilities needed by school.

Due to the prevailing situation due to Covid-19 pandemic, sanitary facilities are essential in schools where many schools do not have sufficiently. This year, WEF plans to provide sanitary facilities to three schools with less facilities. Proposals were obtained from the Executive Committee members and the Advisory committee members of the WEF. After evaluating the proposals, three schools were selected. Proposals and estimates were prepared for the three schools. The proposals were prioritised considering the beneficiary factor and will be implemented according to the receipt of contributions.

The requirements of the three schools are as follows.

Priority order	Details of the school	Available facilities	Requirement considered for implementation	Estimated Cost (LKR)
1	Giridara Sribodhi Vidyalaya, Kapugoda, Dompe (Mixed school with 338 students and 12 teachers)	3 male toilets and only one is functioning. 3 female toilets are used by girls and teachers. But, all are in poor quality.	1 male toilet and 1 teachers’ toilet.	589,585.44
2	Kuli/ L.B. Jayasena M.V, Horagasagaara, Hiruwalpola (Mixed school with 270 students and 24 teachers)	4 toilets available for students but not in good condition. 01 toilet available for teachers.	1 male toilet and 1 female toilet.	567,838.44
3	Ch/SippikalanaVidyalaya, Mugunawatawana (Near Chilaw) (Mixed school with 168 students and 16 teachers.)	2 toilets available with minimum facilities.	1 male toilet and 1 female toilet.	567,838.44

“Helping others in their times of need is the best gift to the humanity”. Hence WEF believe that this is the right time for us to get together and lend our hands for a worthy cause. Children are the future of this country and by investing for children’s basic needs in schools; we are contributing to the country’s development and self-sufficient literate society.

To make this endeavour a reality, WEF would like to invite you to join hands with us both monetarily and morally.

If you are interested in contributing a donation, please donate on or before January 15th 2021. You can make donation by making online payment, cash payment at IESL /deposit cash at banks/ draw cheque in IESL account number given below (kindly mention the reason as “Blooming Buds - 3” for the payment as it should be distinguished from other payments)

Dear Member:

As the President of Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka (IESL), I would like to inform you that, IESL, in its 114 year history, has made numerous positive contributions to development efforts of the country. As recently as 2008, IESL proposed the Colombo Suburban Railway Project (CSRP) and IESL was the happiest when news broke out that the project would commence in 2020. Involvement of IESL in this particular project, as well as in other national projects that are beneficial to the country, has only two intentions. One - The project will be done without fail and Two - The project represents good value for public money invested.

One of the major concerns of IESL In recent years was the under-utilization of Sri Lankan engineering expertise in national level projects. This was highlighted by IESL at a recent meeting with His Excellency the President where we stated that (a) Sri Lankan Engineers have the full capacity of doing all Pre-feasibility, feasibility and pre-tender work of any Project (b) It is important to increase the local component in all engineering projects (c) It is important to establish a national plan for development spanning at least 30 year duration and (d) It is essential to have input of Sri Lankan Engineers in all projects from pre-feasibility stage to completion. HE the President affirmed IESL’s views.

Water for Home Gardening - Inviting Proposals for Innovative...

Announcement

Published Date : 2020-05-05

Inviting proposals for innovative ideas of water conservation techniques for Home Gardening

CoVID – 19 pandemic brought in significant impacts to the society and the threat to immediate food security is on top of the list. It is evident that Government is highly encouraging home gardening as a remedial measure to this situation. There is a clear interest in the society for home gardening and it is fair to conclude that this situation would prevail for some time. However, the water requirement for home gardening will increase the domestic per capita water usage all over the country. According to the National Water Supply and Drainage Board, the cost of production of one m³of treated water is about Rs. 50 and it will be a real challenge to provide increased domestic water demand continuously.

Objective:

As responsible organisation, Water Forum of IESL, is encouraging the home gardening drive by all means. In the meantime, we shall encourage identifying the ways and means of managing the additional water demand.

Proposal should be innovative, simple, practical, aimed at conserving water and energy and suitable to implement on households in Sri Lanka. Proposals will be evaluated under three categories based on suitability home gardening in (A) Urban (B) Peri-urban (C) Dry zone areas. Proposals can be submitted for any type of above three areas and the type and the type should be clearly mentioned in your proposal. A panel of experts consisting of professionals from different branches of water sector will evaluate the proposals based on innovativeness, simplicity, practicality, effectiveness in water and energy conservation and suitability for the selected area).

Find the Effortless Now! The Two Day Non-Residential Workshop (non-religious event)

With Direct guidance & sound healing

Truly being in the Now… is to be in an effortless state while you go about everyday life.

When you are in the Effortless Now you may engage with the world, thinking, talking, being active… but your mind is effortlessly aware, and relaxed. This is what is meant to be in the Effortless Now, the true present moment awareness.

The Effortless Now is a state of being, not a state of doing, in which you can very much be active in the world should you wish to…

The Effortless Now is also the state of flow that the high achievers and competitive sportsmen and women try to get in to, and what the religions talk about as a basic necessity for happiness. It is the way to become more self-aware and at peace, and much more besides.

Being in the Effortless Now will change your life from inside out. You can learn how to be in this state the same way you can learn how to walk, swim or drive.

This program would teach you step by step to do exactly that.

As a result of learning to be in Effortless Presence you will:

be more relaxed and self-aware
be able to let go of the inner chatter
begin the journey to let go of long held grief, fears and phobias, anger issues, and other negative content in the mind and body
have a greater attention span and concentration
let go of stress due to work and troubling issues
be more intuitive
make better decisions in home and work life
improve interpersonal skills
be in better mental and physical health
begin to feel joy in life

“Life gives you plenty of time to do whatever you want to do
if you stay in the present moment” –Deepak Chopra

What the Effortless Present is:

It is a natural state of being

It is a conscious state. It is conscious of content of the mind rather than an unconscious state that is identified with mind content, i.e. the normal waking state
Anyone can identify it within oneself.
The thinking process can be integrated into to the Effortless Now, meaning that one can actively think, plan, etc., while effortlessly being in the present.
You can fully integrate it in to an ethical life.
It is a state that can be deepened to include the spiritual dimension, beyond mere belief.
[Note: what it is not primarily is a state where one tries to exclude the thoughts of the past or the future while trying to concentrate on the present. In other words, it includes the thoughts of the past or the future within an effortless present moment awareness that one intuitively connects to].

There is a precise science to being in the Effortless Present…

All genuine methods in spirituality and meditation will eventually get you in touch with the Effortless Present, including mindfulness meditation.

However this usually takes a considerable amount of time and effort. And not everyone will dedicate themselves enough to reach this state through meditation alone.There is however an alternative:

One can be introduced to the Effortless Present through a direct pointing out by a teacher.

Teachers with very specific consciousness/energy based skills can do this direct pointing out in that anyone open to this teaching can perceive the Effortless Presence within them using their own higher intuition to do so.

Sometime after being introduced in to the Effortless Now
You will be taught how to use sound yoga and music to go deeper in to the Effortless Now..

There is an ancient practice of healing and transformation through sound. Modern clinical psychiatry also uses music in its therapeutic work.

Music and sound can be attuned to in a particular way to give you an experience of deep relaxation and increased awareness.

In this workshop you will be shown the transformative power of connecting with music and sound to deepen your experience of the Effortless Now. This will also give you a joyful way to connect with your inner self through sound and music.

A guarantee: everyone will find and experience the Effortless Present by the end of this program.

The effect of being in the Effortless Presence in your work life:

Being in the Effortless Presence will mean that you will be in a state of relaxed alertness during your work. This will put you ‘in state’ to handle work-commitments more efficiently.
Creativity, not just in art, but in real-life situations, happens best when you are relaxed and alert at the same time. Your mind will bring up solutions seemingly out of nowhere when you are in this state. This is the so called ‘aha’ moment.
The reason why people come up with brilliant solutions to problems right after a good sleep and rest is because the state of relaxed alertness happens naturally for a short interval right after a good sleep. But the good news here is that that window of relaxed alertness can be had naturally with Effortless Present, and much longer than a short moment. In fact, one can life one’s entire life in this state of relaxed alertness, after some deepening.
The fundamental reason why most people are exhausted after a day of a white-collar job isn’t due to physical tiredness. The primary reason here is the mind that gets in to states of irritation, anger, anxiety, that it holds on to. The very nature of Effortless Present is clearing the mind through awareness. This will cut down or eliminate mental stress on the job itself.
Once you are genuinely relaxed, and not just trying to appear relaxed, others too will be naturally relaxed around you. You will enjoy their company, and they, yours. You will naturally have better interpersonal skills when you in the Effortless Present.
Once you start stabilising in the Effortless Present, you will open up the door of intuitive awareness, which is direct knowledge. Creativity is just one manifestation of higher intuition, the latter being infinitely vaster. The effect of this in your life in general, to whatever extent you will connect to this direct knowledge, will be immeasurable.

Tragedy Unfolded in Our Motherland

Dear Fellow Engineers,

As all of you are aware our motherland has faced one of the gravest tragedies in recent years. We hope and pray that your families and loved ones living in Sri Lanka are safe and well. If your families or friends are affected by recent incidents, please feel free to contact us for any assistance and we are willing to help you.

In coming days, the people and families who are affected by the recent tragedy may require our help and assistance for them to get back into their lives, though this may be a very difficult and a long process. We will be talking to IESL headquarter in Colombo to see if there is any assistance that we can provide to assist the affected people in the country and what sort of long-term assistance we can provide from our end. We humbly request from you to attend the various activities organized in Sydney and around NSW for the affected people in our motherland and help them in whatever way you can.

We hope that our country will learn a lesson from what had unfolded and make sure that similar incidents will not be repeated again in the country. We hope and pray for those who are injured to get well soon and those who lost their loved ones will have strength and courage to stand up and get back to their normal lives. We wish to inform them that we share their grief and our thoughts are with them.

May the religious beliefs held by the affected peoples help them to come to grips with their losses and recover from injuries.

IESL NSW Chapter Executive Committee.

CPD Programme 2018 / 2019 Session

CPD Programme 2018 / 2019 Session

25 Mar 2019 10:30 AM | IESL APS (Administrator)

Designing of Fire Detection and Protection Systems

The Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka is pleased to inform you that, the IESL have successfully started the CPD course “Designing of Fire Detection and Protection Systems” in February 2019. The course commenced on 09^th of March 2019 and will conclude on 30^th of March 2019. This CPD Programme is conducted by

Eng. Chandimal Jayakody

Eng. Samantha Gunawardana

Mr. Rohitha Fernando ( Chief Fire Officer)

Eng. Sagara Akalanka

Eng, Sajeewa Perera

Eng. Suranga Lekamwasam

The main objectives of the training programme are as follows.

Participants will enhance their knowledge of Fire Protection and Detection applications and practical usage. The course is comprised of worked practical examples thereby gain knowledge on design criteria.

There are 69 participants partaking in the Designing of Fire Detection and Protection Systems CPD Programme. IESL would like to thank the pool of Resource persons, CPD Committee and IESL CPD staff of Education Division for their exertion in conducting this course.

Contract Administration

In March 2019 IESL successfully launched the CPD course “Contract Administration”. The course commenced on 03^rd of March 2019 and will conclude on 23 th of June 2019. This CPD Programme is conducted by Eng. A. C. Rasiah BSc (Eng), Dip.Arbitration (Merit) (ICLP), CEng. FIE(SL), MConsE(SL), Consulting Engineer, Arbitrator (ICLP, IESL), Adjudicator (CIDA, IESL)

The main objective of the training programme is;

To provide the contractual and legal knowledge required in the execution of a construction contract and its administration

At present numerous problems such as delays, increase in costs, claims, and disputes arise in our construction contracts due to lack of knowledge about contracts by the Contract Administrator (Engineer/Architect/Quantity Surveyor or his delegated Assistant), Contractor or Client of the Conditions of Contract known as the express terms of a contract (written terms), and the Law governing the contract known as the implied terms of a contract (unwritten terms)

The course is intended to provide knowledge and understanding of contracts to minimize such problems, focusing mainly on the frequently occurring types of problems in our local construction contracts, in order to provide the maximum benefits to the participants from the course and avoid the frequently occurring disputes in our local construction contracts. Avoidance of disputes prevents losses in the time of completion of a construction project due to the avoidance of elaborate dispute resolving processes such as adjudication, arbitration etc. It must be noted that while an adjudication process may take a few months to conclude, an arbitration process may take a few years to conclude. This is detrimental to both the construction industry and the development of the country as a whole.

There are 54 participants partaking for the Contract Administration CPD Programme. IESL would like to thank the pool of Resource persons, CPD Committee and IESL CPD staff of Education Division for their exertion in conducting this course.

Microsoft Project 2013/2016

“Microsoft Project 2013/2016” CPD programme was successfully concluded in February 2019. It was conducted from 06th of January 2019 to 10th of February 2019. The CPD programme was steered by Mr. Shanaka de Silva (Bsc MIS, MBA, MSC, PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM / Executive Vice President – PMI Colombo, Sri Lanka Chapter/Director – Ernst & Young)

The main objectives were,

Relevance and importance for harnessing the competencies and skills of 21st-century engineers
To provide awareness of new/latest developments in a subject area,
To update the members on the current knowledge in a particular technology,
To enable the engineers to acquire the necessary competencies for the effective application of knowledge in the workplace.

45 participants of the Microsoft Project CPD Programme were acknowledged upon successfully completing the course. IESL would like to thank the pool of Resource persons, CPD Committee, participants and IESL CPD staff of Education Division for making this CPD Programme a Success.

Information to Members on payment of ECSL registration fees

Published Date : 2019-05-13

Dear Fellow/Member/Associate Member/Affiliate Member,

This communication is to convey the initiative taken by the 2018/2019 Council to ensure that the three types of Engineering Practitioners under the purview of IESL get registered with the ECSL, as required by the law of the country.

As informed to the public by the Engineering Council, Sri Lanka (ECSL), practitioners of Engineering in Sri Lanka have to be registered under six designated categories in the ECSL on or before 2019/07/31, out of which three categories (types) are under the purview of IESL, to be nominated with members of the Institution, as follows;

Chartered Engineer - Corporate members of the IESL (namely Fellow and Member categories of the IESL)

Associate Engineer - Associate members of the IESL

Affiliate Engineer - Affiliate members of the IESL

For the purpose of Registration, the ECSL will charge LKR 1,000/= +VAT (15%) per member per year. The Council at its 5th meeting for the Session 2018/2019, held on 2019/02/01 decided for this inaugural year (2019) to pay such registration fees for all members in your categories who are on the roll of IESL as of 2019/02/01, through IESL funds, provided that they fall under one of the following;

1. The above 3 types of members (except life members) who have paid the membership fees for 2019 on or before 2019/02/01,

2. The above 3 types of members (except life members) who have paid the membership fees for 2018 on or before 2018/11/30, but not paid for 2019 up to 2019/02/01 (These members will have to ensure that they pay the membership fees for 2019 on or before 2019/11/30),

3. Above 3 types of members who are Life Members (these members will have to pay ECSL registration fees through IESL for subsequent years {2020 onwards}, if they wish to continue ECSL registration, though they are exempt from paying IESL membership fees)

NOTE: All three types of members, including Life Members among them, will have to pay ECSL registration fees through IESL from year 2020 onwards.

I would like to re-emphasise that this initiative was taken by the Council (at a projected expenditure of approximately LKR 18 Million) to ensure that the three types of Engineering Practitioners under the purview of IESL get registered with the ECSL as required by the law of Sri Lanka.

Talk to School’ programme conducted by the Young Members S...

Published Date : 2019-05-13

The first program of ‘Talk to school’ conducted by the Young Members Section Committee of the Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka is scheduled to be held at Rahula Collage Mathara on 14^th February 2019. It is all about engineers going back to their Alma Mater and sharing their experiences, educating the importance of engineering profession, how they become engineers and the road to become a successful engineer.

Target group of Students

For G.C.E A/L students: The main purpose of this program is to help the students who have chosen maths and sciences to know that engineering careers are creative, rewarding and fun, and to encourage those who show an interest in engineering.

For G.C.E O/L students: To help young students see that maths and science can be applied in creative and useful ways – and inspire them before choosing their subjects before the A/L. It is presumed that the best way to engage with this age range will be through talking to the schools and suggesting some follow-up ideas.

What we TALK?

We talk about What is Engineering? Why anybody become an Engineer? Which type of Engineering should you choose? What are employment prospects? Where do Engineers work?

We present the idea that Engineering is behind everything by providing examples of the world’s most pressing problems handled by Engineers. Also how professionally registered Engineers are being respected like other major professions. Further we talk about the IESL, who is a Chartered Engineer and how to achieve the status.

The conduct of the Program

The program lasts for 4 hours with interactive speeches and activities to give an inspirational and energetic impression about Engineers. The Main speeches will be delivered by Eng. A. Manamperi (Vice President, IESL, and Council Member) and Eng. P.W. Sarath (Fellow- Council Member). The other personals are selected from the Engineering Students, Members of the IESL who are Old Boys of Rahula College, Matara. A Leaflet will be distributed during the event for benefit of the students.

This event is organized by the Young Members Section Committee of IESL in collaboration with IESL Ruhunu Chapter.
